21. Local Area Network LAN Covers a small distance: less than 2 miles, fewer than 100 users. Locally controlled: owned and managed by on site personnel. Physically protected: at the business location. Limited scope: single group, department or activity.

22. Figure 7-10 Typical LAN.

23. Wide Area Network Larger than a LAN in size and distance. Can cover cities, states or countries. Physically exposed: use publically available communications media which is exposed.

24. Wide Area Network

25. Network Vulnerabilities Anonymity: unknown users on the Internet. Many points of attack. Sharing: access to many systems. Complexity: connections between many different types of systems and operating systems. Unknown Perimeter: bridging issues. Participation on the Internet.

29. Why Attacks Networks Challenge: prove your skills. Money and espionage: steal trade secrets. Organized Crime: botnets, bank thefts. Cyberterrorism: local and remote. Hacktivism: politically motivated.

30. How to Attack Networks Reconnaissance ◦ Port scans: NMAP, fingerprint hosts, Apps. ◦ Social Engineering: trash, phone, phishing.  Maltego: track a persons connections.  Impersonation: gain physical access. ◦ Intelligence: Media, employee lists.  Way back machine: old web postings. ◦ Online documentation or posting.  Default usernames in applications, etc.

31. Wiretapping / Man in the Middle TEMPEST ◦ all electromagnetic transmissions have emanations. Packet Sniffing: Wireshark ◦ Encrypt transmisisons. Microwave/Satellite: easily accessible. Fiber: quantum cryptography Wireless: firesheep, wardriving.

47. Kerberos Authentication Authentication, Authorization, Accountability (AAA). Use secret key encryption. Provide mutual authentication of clients and servers. Protect against network sniffing and replay attacks.

48. Kerberos Operational Steps 1. Kerberos principle (user’s client) contacts the Key Distribution Center (KDC) to authenticate. 2. KDC sends a session key to the user encrypted with the user’s secret key. 1.KDC sends a Ticket Granting Ticket (TGT) encrypted with Ticket Granting Service’s (TGS) secret key. 3. User’s client decrypts the session key and uses it to request permission to print from the TGS. 4. The TGS verifies user’s session key and sends the user a C/S Client Server session key to use to print. The TGS also sends a service ticket, encrypted with the printers private key. 5. Client connects to printer. Printer sees a valid C/S session key and knows the user has permission to print and knows the user is an authentic user.

52. Firewalls Firewall: permit or deny transmissions between networks based upon a set of rules. Packet Filter Firewall: rule based, stateless, fast. ◦ Each packet must be investigated. Stateful Firewall: tracks active sessions ◦ Maintain state table of sessions ◦ Slower than packet filtering but more secure. Application: works at application layer L7 ◦ inspecting all packets for improper content, can restrict or prevent outright the spread of networked computer worms and trojans.computer wormstrojans Proxy: intercept service requests and make the request on the internal network for external client.

63. SNORT & Honey Pot IDS Snort® is an open source network intrusion prevention and detection system (IDS/IPS) developed by Sourcefire. Combining the benefits of signature, protocol, and anomaly- based inspection.Sourcefire Honey Pot ◦ Watch for suspicious traffic. ◦ Learn what attackers are trying to do. ◦ Acts as a diversion and can lure attackers

64. Figure 7-42 Stealth Mode IDS Connected to Two Networks. Use two network interfaces, one to watch network the other for sending alerts. Avoid being knocked off network by DOS attacks.

65. Intrusion Prevention (IPS) Identify malicious activity, log information about activity, attempt to block/stop activity, and report activity. Intrusion prevention systems can be classified into four different types: [6][7] [6][7] ◦ Network-based Intrusion Prevention (NIPS): monitors the entire network for suspicious traffic by analyzing protocol activity. ◦ Wireless Intrusion Prevention Systems (WIPS): monitors a wireless network for suspicious traffic by analyzing wireless networking protocols. ◦ Network Behavior Analysis (NBA): examines network traffic to identify threats that generate unusual traffic flows, such as distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks, certain forms of malware, and policy violations. ◦ Host-based Intrusion Prevention (HIPS): an installed software package which monitors a single host for suspicious activity by analyzing events occurring within that host.

66. Email Security Pretty Good Privacy ◦ Asymmetric encryption ◦ Confidentiality ◦ Integrity ◦ Authentication ◦ Nonrepudiation ◦ Web of Trust  You trust all the the digital certificates that I trust.
